Evaluation tells us what works, how and why, to maximise the value of taxpayers’ money and better achieve our objectives. It identifies good practice, improves our performance and helps us to use resources on activities that have the most impact.
The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) must develop an evaluation system which informs decision-making for policy, programmes and strategy across a diverse, global range of work.
The FCDO Evaluation Strategy sets the ambition for evaluation over the next 3 years (2022 to 2025). Its main goal is to advance and strengthen the practice, quality, learning and use of evaluation. This will enable the FCDO’s strategy, policy and programmes to be more coherent, relevant, efficient, effective, and have greater impact.
The strategy complements the FCDO Evaluation Policy, which ensures a common understanding of core evaluation principles and standards.
